The standard roadbed width for straight road sections shall be 14 feet, including a one-foot shoulder on each side of a 12-foot traveled surface, with additional width on curves as needed to allow passage of log trucks. Roadbed width is measured from the base of the cut slope to the top of the fill slope. The maximum width allowed on minimum-radius switchbacks is 20 feet. Excavation shall be limited to that necessary to construct the minimum road width. New roads constructed wider than these standards shall be narrowed by pulling back excess fill or sidecast and placing it at locations designated by the Timber Sale Officer.
